Default traded my teg

I just traded in my 96 gs-r for a 99 civic si. I purchased the civic at a dodge dealer. They only gave me 1,500 for the teg. Can you believe that? But on the bright side i only paid 500 for the teg so i kinda made out i guess. Just sux that the teg needed some work which is why they gave me so little for it. The civic si I bought has 60,000 miles on it. Already dropped,has an aem cai, dc header and pro 1 exhaust. I paid 9,000 for the car. So i guess i didnt do too bad.

Nah not a thief. i bought it off of a friend who was an idiot. the only reason i let it go so cheap was because it needed too much work and i dont know how much life the motor had left in it. body needed some work also.

The si is black. And yes i ditched a gs-r for a civic si. I only paid 500 for my gs-r and it wasn't in the greatest condition. I'll post pics of my si on friday when i pick it up.

Regardless of condition, you could have sold or parted out the car for way more then $1500.

I dunno I think the Si is better than a gsr. I have a 2000 si and looked at both cars before I bought and the si was a better deal.
